New DBZ movie on the way. Two of Freiza's former henchmen gather the dragonballs and ressurect him. Enjoyed Battle of the Gods more than I thought I would, so I'm looking forward to this. Freiza was always my favorite villain too.

Yeah, GT was created by someone else with Akira's input. Regardless I don't even count anything past the end of Z as apart of the series.

Glad Frieza is back, But honestly, He shouldn't even be a threat, cause he would be revived at whatever his last power level was. By that point Trunks and Goten, and Piccolo should be able to easily best him.

The 'escalation of power' dynamic in DBZ makes the return/resurrection of characters a tricky thing for the series. By the last saga of Z, even the B-Team could completely body early villains. Whether they're gonna choose to care about this for the sake of the movie... well this is DBZ. We all just wanna see a good fight.

Hope if they do end up making a new series, that they model fights after how they're done in the movies.

The show was awesome to me as a kid, but it hasn't held up well over time. Most of the fights are just basic slugfests, where as in the movies, they are much slicker, and not just because of the animation quality. They're just better put together with a lot more cool moments.

Personally I think it works better as a movie series.

Also helps that the movies didn't have to worry about manga related issues like the tv series did.

Yeah the movies was a sub-reality in a way. Only used the show/manga for timeline backdrops (okay this is when Gohan's a teen, here's where Vegeta joined the core group, this is after Trunks came, etc).

I watched this, and really enjoyed it. One of of the first times I have watched an anime and instantly thought that it could work as an half hour live action sitcom or live action 1 hour show. I can't recommend it enough.

Also I got back into to Rurouni Kenshin for some reason, and I really want to see the revenge (jinchu) arc animated. That shit in the OVA doesn't work for me. Also Hajime Saito maybe my favorite character in anything ever. They should actually should have used him in the 3rd season of the anime.

Just finished Black Bullet. Not bad overall, though at times I wasn't sure if they were playing up the underage thing up for laughs or playing it straight... being dubiously or ambiguous about it is one thing, but they spelled out in the very first episode that the girls are no older than 10, and still added harem comedy and sime fan service elements...? That was a bit creepy.

Also, Kisara Tendo. She is what would happen if Inigo Montoya became Fist Of The North Star. And changed genders.

I get that. But it's usually a lot more tounge-in-cheek. Or the girl will be about 18, and just developed like she's 10. This, again, had more upskirt, costumes, shower scenes, etc., for girls that were explicitly determined by the plot of the story to be no more than ten years of age. It was funny for the running gag on Rentaro, but there was stuff where it wasn't influenced by that joke at all.
